Todays ride was probably the fastest ride I've done this year. I have never seen my heart rate so high for so long before.
I had a heart rate of 190 for at least 20mins and the small roller that I had to literally hammer/sprint up got me to 198. I usually ride 165-175 heart rate and 185 for fast climbs and really steep hills. I've never seen 185+ on flats/rollers.
I survived the ride...I'll be back to this one again, what an awesome workout.
I didn't pull once. The guys were too fast and I'm sure I would have blown up anyways trying to pull. Stayed in the front/middle but drafted the whole way. I heard this was slower than usual, I can't wait for the "fast" version lol.
